as citizens of the united states, united states of america, we need to be vigilant. we need to pay attention to what is going on around us. we need to watch and listen. host: let's begin with air marshals not allowed on airplanes overseas. guest: air marshals are allowed, and they routinely do fly. if i'm correct, they generally fly on american carriers. that may be the only limitation. it is up to foreign governments to provide security on foreign carriers. they do not speak publicly very much about their operations. air marshals are very much on flights coming from overseas. they recognize that is perhaps the more severe threat, incoming flights. they're not on every flight, but they are on a lot more than they were right before christmas. in situations where foreign governorgovernments have said t- and the u.s. does have the authority to say to a carrier that you cannot fly to the u.s. because of concerns about security. for example, if it is not sufficient at an airport, they can block flights for that city. that does not often occur, but they do have that power.
